Here's some more shit to chew on
the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
If I can logically demonstrate something to be wrong, it would be irrational to disagree with me.
Most of your arguments boil down to 'because I don't like it'. Which is inconsequential, really.
It isn't Jakeybear himself that I dislike, it's his retarded insistence that everyone think the way he does.
"I hate sexuality" is a perfectly acceptable thing to say. "I hate sexuality, and so should you" is just silly.

The main question I need answered right now is why you shouldn't hate sexuality. Why shouldn't you be pissed off about how women are represented in games.I haven't received an adequate answer to these questions in my life.

Why shouldn't you be pissed off about how women are represented in games.I haven't received an adequate answer to these questions in my life.Actually, that's not true at all. I have received adequate answers (from Luciana and Aria in particular), but I haven't received... great answers. Answers that changed my mind on the topic forever and adopted THEIR line of thought.So let me rephrase--Why should I not care about oversexualization? Why shouldn't I consider this an issue?Why should I adopt your line of thought?
Because it doesn't affect you.Duh.
There are TONS of girls who do not appreciate this sort of shit. The whole feminazi movement should be enough to convince you of that.
Now that probably sounds like white-knighting or whatever but I think it means something to say that I do this for everything that I deem an issue.
That's exactly my point. The only thing I can do about it, is talk about it. Protest.Or as some people would say it, exactly what I'm doing right now.
I don't expect them to.But people on their forums? On Twitter (where I'm pretty vocal about it as well)? On their YouTube channel or article comment sections?I can't tell you how many developers follow the same people I do, and read the same articles I do, and look at the same comments I do.
Even if one person takes away what I've said here today and says "Hmm, you know what? He was right?" I've succeeded.
Arguing on the Internet is doing something about it. Get over it.
Sure, in the same sense muttering 'that's terrible' to your TV when you hear about some recent tragedy counts as 'doing something about it'.
Quote from: Liquid Plotmaster on August 27, 2015, 10:18:10 PMSure, in the same sense muttering 'that's terrible' to your TV when you hear about some recent tragedy counts as 'doing something about it'.Wrong.When conversing with people over the Internet, you are relaying information. Durr. You might just relay the information to someone who would actually be willing to do something about it. Shouting at your TV is useless because no one can hear you.
I just tweeted at Capcom, by the way. Can I be in the sooper cool uber progressive getting-shit-done club now?
Okay. Are any of them actually hurt by fictitious breasts, or are they whining about shit that affects literally nobody?
It's stupid and immature, sure, I agree with that, but exactly how are they harmed?
Nobody is offended by Ryu's torso-sized biceps or Akuma's borderline-deformed pecs.
What stands out about Mika's bizarre and impossible figure?
I acknowledge that. I'd have more respect for it if you were willing to make actual progress instead of posting the same sort of thread that's been made dozens of times before on this site.
If you really feel this is an issue, do something more than just complain somewhere they won't find it. You say you care about women and how they're represented, but trying to argue for them in such a half-assed way is just insulting.
I'll make you a deal. Rally people on Twitter, on their YouTube channel, on Capcom's website, anywhere that will have a real effect. When you've made a real difference, I'll concede on the matter. I'll even protest alongside you. Does that sound fair?
Yet it's still all for naught if you're unwilling to do anything about it.
it won't change the fact that nobody else on this site wants to join you in your slothful armchair protest.
Either Verb has gotten nicer, or I like him moreBecause I see insults going his way and not the other way around. At least at a glance.

3. I dont feel like Verb is going to get through to plotmaster because there's so much, er, dislike between them.
Awh how sweet
Why does Street Fighter resort to this?
